Happy Friday! Out of my week so far, two days have been great and two have been less than stellar. Just keeping it real! So if your’re on the struggle bus also with your new normal, please know YOU. ARE. NOT. ALONE! It’s gonna take some getting used to.
I saw this quote and it was definitely a FAVORITE…we’ll always remember this time and it’ll forever change us. #amiright
I think I forgot to share the big news from my FAVORITE ten-year-old…do you notice any differences?
Do you see that pretty smile? Bless her heart. Her phase one braces took way longer than we were expecting, but they’re finally off! She couldn’t be happier!
I shared our FAVORITE family-friendly movies a few weeks ago and decided now is the perfect time to share it again. I asked for your recommendations on Insta Stories and got so many great ideas! I’ll be sharing those over on my Insta Story today and hopefully saving them to my highlights! {If I can figure out how to do that.}
I showed you what my plan was for our parent-led learning this past week and to be honest-we rocked it on Monday. The rest of the week it went downhill. I learned my kids need to change it up so the same schedule everyday was too boring at home. I changed it up on Thursday and the day went SO MUCH BETTER. Just wanted to share in case the same was happening for you! On Thursday, I added in “Game Time”, and a few fun things as well.
FAVORITES this week? Zoom calls with our classes! Ebby Lee had one, Nixon had two, and…
Bowen had two. {One with his class and one with some of his little guy friends.}
Pantry organization happened finally!! The end product is my FAVORITE!! I snapped this to let you know I apparently am a peanut butter hoarder and didn’t even realize it. What’s up next? Our bedroom/closet…sigh.
Don’t mind the wrinkles. The quarantine life doesn’t include an iron or my usual Tom and Sheri’s. This top is something I grabbed for our Spring Break vacation and never had a chance to wear it, but it’s perfect for spring {or at this point in my life-just wearing around the house.} I got lots of messages about those earrings. I got them from Social Threads too, but they’re MIA.
Can you believe my kids’ teacher showed up to work like this? Please note the class notes and coffee in hand. Tie-dye is all the rage right now and I’m here for it! I found the perfect lounge wear, my new FAVORITE, from Target…top and shorts. {I sized up to a large in the sweatshirt and kept my shorts true to size for a small.}
Our FAVORITE outing of the week…we had a birthday drive by for one of Bowen’s besties. We {along with two other moms/kids} made signs, had streamers, and let our boys poke out the sunroofs as we drove by their bestie’s house on his birthday. We honked our horn, blared, “Birthday” by The Beatles, sang our own version of “Happy Birthday”, and then the boys threw the football for just a bit before we drove home {all safely buckled in the car}.
Please note that big smile on the birthday boy’s face. #totallyworthit
Praying you stay safe, friends!
